Reliable stay close to everything
online check-in comfy beds
Check-in was easy online, and staff were available at 11:30 PM to help. Rooms were clean, with comfy beds and perfect pillows after my long flight. It was nice to rest up (I could have spent the whole day in bed). The location is close to the CBD with a five-minute walk to Bourke Street Mall.
The hotel is large with many business guests. This is not ideal if you are looking for a quiet experience. I also found the bathroom small, and the shower lacked a door, so the floor got wet.

Decent stay with noticeable issues
small pool bad coffee
The breakfast experience was disappointing. The buffet was expensive. COFFEE cost extra and was not good. Room service also lacked quality and the menu had limited options. The pool was too small considering the hotel size. It felt crowded.
